Integrating language and content: empirical perspectives on CLIL (AILA 2005 Symposium) Convenors: Christiane Dalton-Puffer (Vienna,Austria) Tarja Nikula (Jyv�skyl�, Finland) This symposium at the AILA 2005 Congress intends to bring together researchers who are investigating characteristics of language produced in CLIL classrooms. The points of interest may be located at any level of linguistic organization: phonological, lexicogrammatical, pragmatic, discoursal/textual. The purpose is to invite reflection, share experiences and identify areas for future research and development grounded on empirical observations on what happens in CLIL classrooms. The symposium will be concerned with issues and questions such as the following: * What are the characteristics of CLIL classroom discourse? Are these similar/different across contexts (linguistic, institutional, cultural)? * In what ways is CLIL classroom language different from (or the same as) FL classes and/or L1 content classes? * When CLIL happens in foreign language environments, what are the influences of the surrounding L1 culture on the CLIL classroom community? * What is the role of L1 and the nature of language contact in CLIL settings? Individual contributions will present research on CLIL classrooms with a clear focus on language issues and should consider the implications of research results for further development of CLIL. Please submit your 250-word abstract by 1 May to the two convenors christiane.dalton-puffer

campus.jyu.fi Notification of acceptance: 20 May Due to the time restrictions for AILA symposia, we will only be able to accept 5-6 papers for the panel itself. However, we are also looking into the possibilities of publishing a collection of articles on empirical CLIL research. We therefore invite you to send us your proposal even if you are not planning to attend AILA but are working in this field.
